Don’t know what im more mad about. The fact we’re missing another one or the constant rain barrage that seems never ending on modeling

Maybe it's just a bad run for the long range. Hopefully the last 2 weeks of February the blocking will do work. Phase 8, Strat split, blocking, we got to do work last half of the month. February is dead to me forever if not.

I could see a scenario where you get some action in Troutman next week While Mooresville gets some but less and Fro in Concord gets even less lol 😂 Then it would feel like CAD events when i was in Middle and HS from 2003-2009. China Grove , Mooresville, Extreme N Davidson and Salisbury, Statesville would all get like 3-6" And down by George Liles in Concord id have like 1 and rain lol

George liles and hwy 29 aka the concord pd zone of death. Percentile for getting pulled over there is like 25-40 on a normal day

I've been waiting for those storms since I moved up here from CLT, but haven't really had any yet. Anything CLT gets, we get like .5 inches more. The move has thus far been unproductive.

CAD doesn't work like it used to. Only thing it's good for is 35-40 degree rains instead of 60 degree rains

Meh, your prolly right. Unfortunately now gotta be in Statesville or further north. Or like North Wilkesboro / West Winston score no matter the setup. Far enough N for CAD , Far enough west not to mix.

Maybe it'll happen again one day. I miss when February was a winter month. Some of our biggest storms have been in Feb

I have NEVER for the life of me why anyone would wish for an Ice Storm. To me that is as Stupid as one can get

People wish for tornadoes, hurricanes, and severe weather too….Some of us just like extreme weather. Not sure I want a major ice storm, but I’ll take sleet with some ZR.

It's kinda crazy to "wish" for those too. It's one thing for them to just happen that's out of our control, but to wish for something like that is just being Stupid IMO

The good news is that our wishes have no actual impact on the weather, so people can wish for whatever they’d like. I have no interest in experiencing a hurricane or tornado IMBY, though, personally, but I don’t begrudge those who do. Personally, I think an ice storm is on a whole different level, though, compared to those.

I don’t care for pure ZR storms, but give me some sleet or snow, as well, and I can enjoy it. Usually, we get a mix, not just pure ZR.

So I guess we hope for boring weather or snow or rain ? Noiceeee.

I guess so. We can’t even root for extreme heat or cold since those kill people, too. Snow and rain also cause traffic fatalities, etc. Maybe we should just wish for mild and sunny? But then the sun causes skin cancer…
 
Haven't been paying much attention, let me guess, the models are targetting Mid Atlantic and NE? As was obvious 300 hours ago?

Edit: Ah yes, the WPC shifted their risk map further North too.

You guys want to track after this one, so kicking the can per say to the next 300+ hour fantasy snow. This one sucks and has sucked at 500mb the whole time. Something we don't have good imagery of with the AIFS suite because the maps suck to read/know much about. Imagine relying on a model they can't even invest time or money into making maps for because it's experimental.

Right now, the GFS/GEFS and ECMWF/EPS are the best models in the world.

I do think the AIFS is going to be a good tool when they get the huge ensemble system built for it; They're working on it now. Probably 100+ members it will be able to do fairly easily.

Solution to the mild and sunny.

CAD, all 365 days of the year.

Non-stop cool and cloudy.

/s (you need breaks)
 
Start humming the theme song of the Love Boat:


"FAIL...NOT EXCITING OR COOL;
COME ABOARD...WE'RE EXPECTING YOUUUUUUUUUUU,
AND FAIL, PUT AWAY YOUR SNOW BOARD,
PUT AWAY, IT WILL HIDE FROM YOUUUUUUUUUU.

THE FAIL BOAT,
SOON WE'LL BE WATCHING A TORCHY RUN.
THE FAIL BOAT, PROMISES SOMETHING AND PULLS THE RUG,
SET A COURSE FOR DISASTER
YOUR MIND ON NEW SNOW DANCE.

FAIL, WILL SCREW EVERYONE
IT'S A MIDDLE FINGER, ON A WEATHER BOARD.
YES FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!

WELCOME ABOARD, IT'S FAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!"
 
I know it’s only february but i’m starting to think winter is over at least for my backyard unfortunately. But as spring is around the corner I look forward to a quite severe season around here hopefully
 
Never fails .... every time we start a thread it goes to crap. Que 1300m to tell us how stupid we all are for even looking at models 7 days out. I'll still follow the trends, but it will take an absolute miracle to bring this one back from the dead.

Nah I’m not going to do that. I’ve been guilty of it too many times myself. The professional side of me knows better but I’ve got kids and am a kid myself inside and want it badly so when you start seeing glimmers - or relentless runs showing the goods at 200 hours - it sure is tempting to get sucked in. But I know better, we all do.
 
Not sure how many of y'all have listened to the Ace & TJ Show over the years, syndicated radio show based out of Charlotte, but sad news about Ace. I know he had been battling some personal issues and was let go from the show abruptly back in Sept but dang this is sad. I used to listen to this show all the time but haven't listened in years. RIP
